    I could be wrong, but as I understand it, due to the still high proportion of
    academic users on the Net, there are far more Unix users connected than even PC
    users, let alone Mac users.  Macs probably get a higher showing than in the
    desktop figures, again because of the academic slant.  But Unix is still the OS
    of choice on the Net - not just servers, but clients too.

    Yes, most home users have PCs, but they're dial-up, maybe 3 hours a day.  Unix
    systems tend to be hard-wired on, and get time-shared between students with time
    to burn.

    This is where Microsoft Explorer is loosing out, and it's a huge hole that Chaco
    really need to fix to get better acceptance.
